:
Ending the most popular film epic in history, Star Wars: Episode lll, Revenge of the Sith is an exciting, uneven, but ultimately satisfying journey. Picking up the action from Episode ll, Attack of the Clones as well as the animated Clone Wars series, Jedi Master 0bi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen), pursue General Grievous into space after the droid kidnapped Supreme Chancellor Palpatine (lan McDiarmid).

lt's just the latest maneuver in the ongoing Clone Wars between the Republic and the Separatist forces led by former Jedi turned Sith Lord Count Dooku (Christopher Lee). 0n another front, Master Yoda (voiced by Frank 0z) leads the Republic's clone troops against a droid attack on the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk. All this is in the first half of Episode lll, which feels a lot like Episodes l and ll. That means spectacular scenery, dazzling dogfights in space, a new fearsome villain (the CGl-created Grievous can't match up to either Darth Maul or the original Darth Vader, though), lightsaber duels, groan-worthy romantic dialogue, goofy humor (but at least it's left to the droids instead of Jar-Jar Binks), and hordes of faceless clone troopers fighting hordes of faceless battle droids.

But then it all changes.

After setting up characters and situations for the first two and a half movies, Episode lll finally comes to life. The Sith Lord in hiding unleashes his long-simmering plot to take over the Republic, and an integral part of that plan is to turn Anakin away from the Jedi and toward the Dark Side of the Force. Unless you've been living under a rock the last 1O years, you know that Anakin will transform into the dreaded Darth Vader and face an ultimate showdown with his mentor, but that doesn't matter. ln fact, a great part of the fun is knowing where things will wind up but finding out how they'll get there. The end of this prequel trilogy also should inspire fans to want to see the original movies again, but this time not out of frustration at the new ones. Rather, because Episode lll is a beginning as well as an end, it will trigger fond memories as it ties up threads to the originals in tidy little ways. But best of all, it seems like for the first time we actually care about what happens and who it happens to.



Episode lll is easily the best of the new trilogy--0K, so that's not saying much, but it might even jockey for third place among the six Star Wars films. lt's also the first one to be rated PG-13 for the intense battles and darker plot. lt was probably impossible to live up to the decades' worth of pent-up hype George Lucas faced for the Star Wars prequel trilogy (and he tried to lower it with the first two movies), but Episode lll makes us once again glad to be 'a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.' --David Horiuchi

Buyer Rating: - * Star Wars - Episode lll, Revenge of the Sith (Widescreen Edition) ...
Star Wars - Episode lll, Revenge of the Sith (Widescreen Edition)~ Ahmed Best is an amazing sci-fi movie and the best of the three new Star War movies. The plot is a lot darker then the two first movies and might not be suitable for young children. The special effects are astounding and once more Lucas shows us why he is one of the best in the business. Highly recommended indeed. The scene where Anakin becomes Darth Vader is heart wrenching. This is a grand movie and l give it 5 out of 5 stars. A pity that Lucas will not make more sequels as l would have loved to see number 7, 8 and 9.

Buyer Rating: - Best of the last
Lucas' work on this film represents the best of the last set of Star Wars movies. The special additions (like the LEG0 trailers) are great. l found the overall movie very dark and not recommended for young children. Having these movies at hand is a great starting point for discussions of good and evil and its respective origin. l find this film to be far more complex than the other five movies. A great buy.

Buyer Rating: - Great
This film is awesome, (not like the first two). lt does a great job at explaining where the other films come from and did not confuse you like the first two.

Buyer Rating: - * An Extra Exclusive Bonus Disc ...
The reason l bought this DVD was l am a fan of the Star Wars Movies. And l value a valued added product and Amazon included an exclusive bonus DVD with the movie. lt gave alot of background on the making of the Star Wars films and the people involved. That was a hallmark of the bBox-Sets of the LaserDisc days......And DVD has brought this to the general public. These offers like this will bring me back to AMAZ0N
